How exactly do you go about protecting the healer? Monsters are set on a Gambit system. Typically it is to kill the weakest character first, more often than not the healer is the weakest character. The only way to stop a Gambit, as far as I can tell, is to use the spell Decoy. Decoy doesn't always work, sometimes it misses, therefore making it pretty ineffectual in the run of things.

I don't use character classes. Some of my characters are more focused on certain aspects and skills, sure, but they generally run pretty equal to each other. It works for me.

P.S. Get off your high horse. Just because you've had a longer run with video games, does not mean you understand the meaning behind them any better than the rest of us do. And don't assume things.

Im not on a high horse...i just been playing rpgs for years and would assume that most rpg fans realize the point in having casters be casters or fighters be fighters and respect the system thats been built.

Hey if thats how you guys want to play then so be it. I find it a sad day though when the traditional roots of RPGs are being ever so slowly wiped away and let everyone be everything in RPGs.

And how do you protect a healer? Well thats for someone to figure out and find their own methods...i play this game manually therefore i protect my healer just fine.

Listen though, im not here to fight or argue or get into a flame war. I have my opinion, you guys have yours.
